Yep, have to start somewhere - make an offer. I'm done skiing so plenty of wiggle room on price. And think of all the hours of fun with the Instaslalom course :)
Appreciate the input! The ads for those skis sound about right and bigger is probably better. I'll stay with the Frankenstien'ed Exo's and see what happens.
I remember never getting hurt at 28/30mph and having a blast getting regular at -32 & making a few -35. I will be slowing the boat down this summer. Your thoughts on skis that would do well at 30mph? Thx. (185#, 6'2" older guy)
A little early to dread winter but I need to have a winter plan. Anyone know of February waterskiing spots near Anza, CA.? Last February here averaged -2.6F for the month. I don't think I'll stay for that again. Thx, Matt.
OK I'm bored sitting at Mayo Clinic with a family member. Lots more fun thinking about waterskiing n this was a memorably fun day; boatload of friends in a vdrive n I ran a slow -32.

Here is the last time I saw any buoys, probably 4 yes ago. Made some progress over the years but slow speed n long line was just a lot of fun.
No idea on speed - hand driven outboard. Probably -15 rope with a few knots :) Fun days, I think that was the third completed pass after a couple months of trying the course.
Check compression. I had experience with cross-firing between cylinders twice due to head gasket leak between cylinders on 350's. Both times they presented normal operation until engine started doing some work. Both times at #8 n #6 cylinder. Hope yours is that easy!
